Car access

With this green car scheme, employees enjoy a brand new or Pre-loved car for up to 60 months, with no need to pay a deposit or ongoing maintenance costs.

Employer NIC savings average around £1,000 per driver per year (depending on sector and car chosen).

Step 1

Register your business

Register your business for free on the BHN Extras platform and enable Green Car benefit for your workforce. This takes only about 5 minutes.

2
Step 2

Employees register

Employees create a free BHN Extras account and access Green Car benefit to then request the exact make, model and specification of electric or hybrid car they want.

4
Step 4

Power up

Employees receive their car directly to their door. The scheme includes insurance, servicing, maintenance, breakdown cover, MOT, replacement tyres, and VED

Inclusive motoring for your workforce...
